Show Windows is a lightweight command line application that can help you view a list of opened windows and processes, while also giving you the possibility to micro-manage them efficiently.

You can turn to this application if you need a way to view a list of windows or programs that you've opened on your computer and perform various administrative actions.

Running the application can be accomplished without opening a command prompt window beforehand, but launching it this way only lets you view a list of currently opened windows, without any additional controls available.

You can view a list of commands by launching the application from a CMD window and appending the "-h" argument at the end of the command. The program will then display a list of commands along with a set of examples so that you can understand its functionality and operate its controls easier.

You can show all open windows, list all open windows belonging to a certain process, list all open windows belonging to a certain user, view all windows that have a specified title, close windows and kill processes.

Since the application is portable, you don't need to install it on the target computer, as decompressing the archive it comes packed in and launching the executable grants you full access to its functions.

More so, it doesn't create any additional files or folders on your computer and doesn't tamper with any of your Windows registries. You can also run it from removable storage media such as USB flash drives or external HDDs.

All things considered, if you need a window and process manager that can be run from command line and lets you view opened windows and close them or kill processes, then Show Windows is for you. It doesn't require installation and its interface can be easily understood even by novices, thanks to its comprehensive examples list.
